Tired of decaf coffees that leave you wanting more? :) This coffee offers a complex and rich cup that reminds you that decaffeinated coffees can be extremely delicious.
This coffee is an Ethyl Acetate (EA) Decaf. Ethyl Acetate is a naturally occurring sugar found in many fruits and is a byproduct of fermented sugar. It is used as a solvent to bond with and remove caffeine from green coffee. Through a process of steaming and low pressure, the EA bonds with the caffeine molecules over the course of eight hours before having one last steam to remove any trace of the EA.
